What Are Mystery Debates?
Mystery Debates are exclusive, unlockable debate challenges designed to reward creativity, persistence, and high-quality argumentation.
Mystery Debates are accessible only after completing certain actions on the platform, such as participating in debates, providing feedback, or participating in 1 on 1 discussions. They can be found on the home page or sometimes, mysteriously around the rest of the platform.
Each Mystery Debate comes with its own private prize, unique topic, and judging criteria, making it one of the most exciting experiences on VersyTalks.
